    Series 2, Episode 5 - Process Mining

    Who knew? Process Mining is the 'next, big thing'. You have to ask how out of touch executives can be.

    This is the third of three episodes (18-20) that address Managerialism, a western approach to business that created a class of managers locked into practices dating from early in the twentieth century.  These practices, known as scientific management, are evident in many of the the things we blame on business in general, and on capitalism in particular.
